Technical Abstract

In some implementations, a system may receive a first request including a user internet protocol (IP) address associated with the first request, and a user e-mail address associated with an e-mail account of a user. The system may store the submission IP address in association with the first request. The system may transmit a confirmation e-mail message to the user e-mail address. The confirmation e-mail message may include image data associated with the first request. The system may receive, from an e-mail client associated with the user e-mail account, a second request to access the image data. The second request may include a confirmation IP address. The system may perform a comparison of the requesting and submission IP addresses and the submission IP address. The system may transmit, to the e-mail client, an image associated with the image data and based on the comparison.
